GRE

So I gave the dreaded GRE. I studied in a short time by myself. I got the Kaplan books and the ETS book.

The Kaplan GRE Math Workbook cost $13.60
The Kaplan GRE Exam Verbal Workbook cost $13.60
ETS Workbook cost me $20.99 but its available on Amazon for 14.28

There are also plenty of practise tests online that are free. So I did a few of those too.

The exam costs $140.00

Total cost: 188.19

The score were pretty decent. I could have scored a bit higher on math. But I decided am not taking it again. This would do.

Getting a PhD

So I finally made the decision to do it. To get my PhD. This blog will chronicle the the intellectual, social and financial struggles that are a part of the process of getting a PhD.
